bindings positioningAngle of bindings positioning is an individual case for every snowboarder! Everyone of us has his own agle of bindings positioning and it is nothing strange or abnormal. Positioning angle depends on sow conditions and riding style. Angle and snowboard bindings spacing should be chosen like that to make your riding position natural and not to cramp your moves. Bindings shouldn’t be distant too much from each other because then you won’t be able to control your board completelly; on the other hand if they are too close you will loose your balance. Bindings should be spaced out more or less on the width of your shoulders. You can rearrange your bindings very easily so if only something doesn’t suit you, you can rearrange them very fast. Below I placed a table with more or less optimal bindings positioning range for particular ride styles.
